5. Power Venter to vent pipe connections and all joints on the outlet side of the Power Venter must be sealed with high-temperature silicone

sealant or aluminum vent pipe tape to prevent flue gas leakage, (See Diagram E).

6. Oil installations require the use of a barometric draft control. Draft control must be installed between the appliance outlet and the Power

Venter inlet, (See Diagram E). Oil installations should use the same diameter pipe on the inlet and discharge side of the Power Venter.

7. Allow for a minimum straight section of pipe equal to 3 times the diameter of the vent pipe being used when installing elbows on the

discharge side of the Power Venter. For example, if using 4” pipe, allow for 12” of straight pipe before using an elbow, (See Diagram F).

POWER VENTER MOUNTING

1. Slide the outlet of the Power Venter over the inner sleeve of the Vent Hood and connect them together using a tapered transition

fitting if necessary, (See Diagram G). If you are unable to make a direct connection to the Vent Hood, vent pipe may be installed
between the Power Venter and Vent Hood. However, all vent pipe connections after the Power Venter must be sealed with high
temperature silicone caulk or aluminum vent pipe tape to prevent flue gas leakage, (See Diagram E).

2. To facilitate installation and reduce vibration we have included 2 mounting brackets, 2 rubber isolaters and 2 rubber grommets. One

of the brackets may be used temporarily as a “third hand” while positioning it for permanent installation.

3. When installing the Power Venter for horizontal mount, install one of the brackets to the electrical box using the nut/screw

provided. Install the other to the damper rod as shown below. When installing the Power Venter for vertical mount, only one
bracket is needed. This bracket should be mounted to the motor as shown below. Temporarily support the Power Venter
using wire or a ladder and assemble the mounting brackets, (See Diagram H).

4. Verify required vent pipe diameter from “Power Venter Selection” on Page 1. Verify that a full sized barometric control has been

installed on appliances not equipped with a draft hood or draft diverter.

5. Install properly sized vent pipe sections from Power Venter inlet to appliance outlet avoiding elbows wherever possible, using

only tapered transitions. In most cases a reduction in vent pipe diameter from that of the appliance flue outlet will be necessary.

6. Using four holes as guides, attach vent pipe to Power Venter inlet collar using sheet metal screws.

7. Support vent pipe in accordance with vent pipe manufacturer’s instructions.

8. All necessary vent pipe connections after the Power Venter will be under positive pressure during operation. These connections

must be sealed with high-temperature silicone sealant or aluminum vent pipe tape supplied by the installer, (See Diagram E).
